Putting a carb on a turbo car is going to cost a fair bit more than putting one on an NA. You have to have it modified to be used in a blow through setup, then find a carb hat to hook the IC pipe too, which BTW you have to use a FMIC, since the stock top mount won't fit anymore.
And if that isn't bad enough, you'll have to swap jets EVERY time you do something to the car, and even when the temp changes.
What I'm trying to say is fix your damn fuel injection. You'll only create way too much work to make your car slower (unless you know some Puerto Rican rotary tuners
)...

If you having that stumbling problem and FI problems, after making sure of the obvious such as vacuum leaks, I'd be looking at my ECU very hard

I too was thinking carb because the idle bug is pissing me off I tried everything but I know how much of a pain in the *** it would be to set up. I guess I will have to make my own custom FI.

"Fuel injection is superior to carbs in all circumstances. Period.
Now will people stop asking this damn question already?!?"
Not 100% true, well tuned carbs atomize (and I use the term "atomize" loosely, should say mist) FAR superior to currently available injection systems. (except some of the new ultra high pressure injectors that will be comming out).
But yeah, injection rulez

I was hoping for another FI vs. Carb war. We haven't had one in a few weeks.
Stay with the FI or better yet, upgrade to a haltech or something similiar if you don't already have that.
